Three Meat Curry
Three meat curry is one the main ingredients for lump rice (recipe to follow). However, it is delicious with string hoppers, rice or bread.
INGREDIENTS
250g skinless chicken, diced
250g lamb or mutton, diced
250g pork, diced
1 tsp allspice
1 tbs roasted curry powder
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbs crushed chilli
1 tbs crushed black pepper
1 tbs tamarind paste
2 cups hot water
1 tbs coconut vinegar
1 tbs vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
2 green chillies, sliced
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tbs ginger root, chopped
2 sprigs curry leaves
1 piece of lemon grass, crushed
1 cinnamon stick
Salt to taste
METHOD
Marinade the meat in a bowl with the spices, tamarind, vinegar and salt. Set a side for a half and hour. Heat the oil in a pan, add the garlic, ginger, onion, lemon grass, cinnamon, curry leaves and green chillies. Mix well and cook until the onions are golden brown. Next add the meat mixture, combine everything together and add the hot water. Cover and cook for about 20 minutes on a slow flame, stirring constantly until the gravy becomes thick and the meat has absorbed the flavours. Check the seasoning. Remove the cinnamon stick and lemon grass before serving.
